at 14:30 you can stretch the view horizontally and you can slow the tempo to make it easier to deal with that quick chord progression .

So glad Apple have bought back Chord Track into Logic Pro. I've been using it for years in Cubase Pro and it's great that we now have it plus session players in Logic. Love the new features in Logic Pro 11

Since you requested feedback on how viewers enter chords in the chord track ... I am primarily a (by ear) guitar player, for identifying complex chords that I can play but don't know precisely what they are, I use my Roland GR-55 guitar synthesizer to identify the midi chords being played and enter them into the chord track. Thank you for your practical videos.

They never told me being clever was important in Rock ‘n’ Roll.. I regret that advise. And also that I can’t play anything. Keep it up Butch. 👍🏼

I had a crack at making a demo today of the Velvet Underground’s Sunday Morning. It certainly made it easy to get a basic backing started. I did a chord track then added a Drummer, Bass player and Piano player. After that I played acoustic guitar and added a vocal…..and it sounds fine. I’ll tweak it all a bit more but I’m impressed at how quickly you can get a track going. It is important to use the arrangement too….Intro, verse, chorus, bridge and outro etc. It makes a big difference to what the players play.

Scaler2 makes chords, and their MIDI input available easily. And is available MacOS and iOS/iPadOS

Sick! I’ve been trying to get into using this to not only make more interesting composition but just to teach myself more about theory. Only learning rhythm/drums growing up and starting to make music on my own quickly made me realize I’m an old dog not trying to learn new tricks 😂😂 this feature helps a ton to be able to write out chords and drag the midi around!

It's a great addition and I am enjoying it. My only difficulty thus far is when there is a break and you just want the bass or keyboard to sustain a single chord or note on the 1 of the break. Other than that, it's been awesome. I also wish that you could create a manual hit hat pattern in drummer like you can with kick and snare. Thanks for the video. Now, if Apple will add a B3 to keyboard and shuffles/blues/jazz styles.

Awesome, I was just checking out this feature and you mind-read all of my questions! omg I was trying to copy&paste chords using actual copy&paste and that was such strange behaviour, but you addressed even that! Option, click and drag ftw!

What I can't understand is why the Chord Track input defaults to 8 bars every time. Can one change it to default to 1 or 2 bars or some other length of the user's choosing???

Say what ya want, these session robots really have it down, especially with all the drum kits remixed I hardly have to do anything other than shop for kit pieces to sound right for the song, which is as fun as shopping at a great drum store with a blank check. I started writing a song this morning and it was ready to pitch to a music supervisor for sync by 5pm. He didn't need it but he said the production quality was great. Usually I send a track off to be mastered before even considering pitching it. I took a chance and it looks like I might be saving some bucks down the road.

For guitarists use midi Guitar 3 beta. You can input guitar chords playing your guitar and the chords will be converted to midi.

@denc9949 Ай бұрын

As you can do in Melodyne. Record you parts, tidy up and convert to midi.

Thanks for the superb content. Is there any hope that LPX will update so that some of the new features will be accessible for INTEL Core users? Whad'ya think?

I assume you mean intel Mac users. No chance really. Apple AI stuff is restricted to M1 and later - they want to sell new hardware by enticing upgrades through software functionality.

I was hoping chord track could crack the chords from a region. Studio One has it.

@markvanhorne3276 6 ай бұрын

Why would you want region chords if they’re different from the chord track or the other session instrument? Seems like a prescription for cacophony.

@emaki24 6 ай бұрын

I could see this being useful with slashed chords like G/C where you want the bass to continue to hold a certain pitch rather than follow the root note of the progression. In classical terms a "pedal point" to add drama and set up a cadence.

Greetings Chris and again thanks for this! I followed carefully, and I second the comment on the chord track being buggy. Created chords pop up 2 bars to the right. Grouping chords does not work. I’ve already developed workarounds for these issues. More importantly, is it possible to create a chord chart, that is a lead sheet, from the chords in the chord track? Regards, William

@daveking-sandbox9263 5 ай бұрын

Actually, I heard much more modern music back in 1957. Along with using these tools, musicians should not forget to study a bit of theory. AI can only help you so far and when you get stuck, you have to have theoretical knowledge to figure things out.

I find it’s kind of clunky, especially editing the chords

@sonidojamon 5 ай бұрын

This is the payoff for not implementing ARA. Logic can't take advantage of ARA plugins' polyphonic pitch analysis, unlike Studio One. I'm really hoping I can switch to Logic Pro as my main DAW in the near future, but for now I always keep coming back to Studio One, as there's so many things I can do there that I can't do in Logic Pro (yet). 😉

Way too much work. I can record all the tracks in less time than it takes to build a chord track one measure at a time. But the players are really good quality.
